Because of my inherited wealth- which I do nothing to earn- I am able to orient my life around unstable work in organizing and the arts. Everything about how I operate as an artist and an activist is colored by this-- and I know it makes people think that I am generous, virtuous and successful when mostly I'm just lucky. Certainly there's a steady stream of boo-hoo privilege guilt that colors my economic life: how much to value my own time as an activist artist against the value of cash, who I should ask to pay me and how much I should spend/give away each year---but overall, my life is free of the weight of money, and I know I am able to be carefree and generous in a way that most of my artist peers are not.
